SB, you wrote<as for the short squeeze, i'm not convinced. why? does every internet company that popped (and they ALL did) have a short squeeze?> The short squeeze started 3 weeks ago, and all we saw was an accumulation, while I saw who was doing it. SB, why do you think they have been no shares to short. The manipulation began, the Day when Amzn announced their spectacular revenue increase and the stock went up 13 points. With the extremely thin float, a short squeeze is very doable. I started my investigation the day Amzn split, theoretically double the amount of shares, should have been available. Do you think that if the float was not being manipulated, there would be no shares available to short? Do you realize that no one has made a dime on the short side since then? Of course not, because we were locked out and they got what they wanted. Little investors fleeing to buy to cover. Yesterdays action was only some of the icing on the cake. Now how much longer will that last. Probably just keep asking when will there be some shares to short?
